Case Study: Danske Bank improves financial crime risk detection with Videris from Blackdot Solutions

How Videris has supported Danske Bank’s Financial Crime Compliance programme

Danske Bank worked with Blackdot Solutions to strengthen its financial crime detection, prevention, and investigation capabilities by improving OSINT support for suspicious activity report investigations. Before the project, investigators relied on manual Google searches, which limited access to data and led to inconsistent results, making it harder to identify all potential risks a customer posed to the bank.

Blackdot Solutions implemented Videris, its online investigations and intelligence platform, to give Danske Bank a single, secure environment for gathering and analysing open-source data such as search engine results, global corporate records, and sanctions and PEP watchlists. The solution helped investigators identify risks faster, improve collaboration, and complete investigations more efficiently and effectively, while also supporting the discovery of previously unknown risks and streamlining casework across teams.
